Ode to the Damned

all enemies entertained
from the fire inside
and the depth well gained
for the lives strewn dead through God's land, maimed

A single tear shed
in the face of a non-believer
runs through the veins of the known deceiver
On this night wed...
Unto the stars above for the King's demeanor

Angel wings torn now bears the cost
of a thousand lives bred born now lost
forever damned unto a life infernal
no eye shall gaze upon the cold nor frost

acerbity's inertia of night
devours the soul of sleeping fright
the chaste awakens, leaving bitten God's given land
my heart rots, pumping blood to sight
Nothing here, we are the damned

Death flashes vividly towards the sun's last view
of us, the cursed; we are misused
blaming lives that were diffused
Nightly skies are torn in two

Secrets kept and stars that wept
Lie beneath the power's stretch
We are here, we are condemned
We won't leave, we are the damned

Minionated demons lying low beneath the rage
fire inseminates our fertility to engage
greedy gyres pounding our thoughts to ash
We are one, we are the damned

    This is a great way to describe Vampires? is it?

    Good job <3 could use some capitals in places and a punctuation check.

      aww thank you!
      Umm.... i guess separating the stanzas in appropriate places is a start.... because if the format is crap then someone will look at it and go "okay this is hard to read" then not read it.
      basically just write what's in your head. let it all flow out. thats all i do...
      if you ever need any advice or help then just ask me... i will happily lend a hand.

    I think this is perfect as is. That last line would be a good ending. Yet another poem of yours that leaves me with a "wow" impression.
